Very neat American theme, but still moved to tears. At the movie level, the three Hollywood bigwigs are really not boasting. The acting skills of the two leading actors are moderate, and Spielberg's scheduling is textbook-level, especially with so many phone scenes, which are exciting; at the theme level, even if the It is criticized as the main theme, but this belief in freedom of the media, insisting on a position, and taking one's own life is what really needs to be recognized. Words are power.

The three great Hollywood gods joined forces, and everyone was in a relaxed state, especially Tom Hanks. Even if they didn’t get enough energy, you still have to marvel at Aunt May’s performance and Lao Si’s directorial skills. The scheduling of the group play is almost at the textbook level, even if the story is re-routable, the place where you should be burned will still be burnt. Old Si is too good. Will those new directors who use deliberately pretending to be their style want to die after seeing it?
